As we reported earlier in the day, former Congressman Virgil Goode has won the Constitution Party’s nomination for President. We had heard that Goode captured 203 votes, one more than the 202 that he needed.
According to Ballot Access News, here are the full results from the first (and only) round of balloting:
203 for Virgil Goode
120 for Darrell Castle
58 for Robby Wells
15 for Susan Ducey
6 for Laurie Roth
1 person abstained
Castle is the party’s former Vice-Presidential nominee, running with pastor Chuck Baldwin in 2008. Well liked by the party’s rank-and-file, Castle mounted a surprise last-minute challenge to Goode at the convention.
Robby Wells is the former head football coach from Savannah State University. He received a $240,000 settlement last year in exchange for dropping a federal discrimination lawsuit.
Amazing that the people have been bzemooalbd into thinking that either Barack or Mitt are a solution — when both are AGAINST these principles upon which our Nation was built!PRINCIPLES we must stand by!“A government big enough to give you everything you need, is a government big enough to take away everything that you have….” Thomas Jefferson“They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security” BENJAMIN FRANKLIN“When liberty is taken away by force it can be restored by force. When it is relinquished voluntarily by default it can never be recovered.” DOROTHY THOMPSON“Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops that can be, on any pretence, raised in the United States. A military force, at the command of Congress, can execute no laws, but such as the people perceive to be just and constitutional; for they will possess the power, and jealousy will instantly inspire the inclination, to resist the execution of a law which appears to them unjust and oppressive.” —Noah Webster, An Examination of the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution (Philadelphia 1787).“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing” EDMUND BURKE“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.” ABRAHAM LINCOLN—————————————————————————–Voting for either anti-American — Barack the Kenyan or Mitt the Mexican Mormon — would only be legitimizing the further government corruption that seems to have no end!VOTE for Garry Johnson — who stands for these principles, and is on nearly all 50 States ballots (unlike my 1st choice, , who is NOT on ANY States ballots) or face the dire consequences of failing to do so — TIME TO WAKE UP AMERICA!VOTE GARY JOHNSON — the only REAL AMERICAN LEFT on the BALLOT!
That’s a knowing answer to a difficult question
Good to find an expert who knows what he’s talking about!
